The premiere episode kicked off with an opening performance of "Implication" by the above mentioned coaches.

Following its debut, Nigerians took to Twitter to share their thoughts. According to popular Nigerian filmmaker, the show has 'fantastic production values,' with overtly syrupy and judges - over effusive in almost childish proportions.

The international version of show was launched in 2010, and has had renowned artistes like Adam Levine, Blake Sheldon, Christina Aguilera, Shakira, Tom Jones, Pharrell Williams, Kylie Minogue and Ricky Martin as coaches.
